and near the middle of the video he's DB bench pressing 2x 140 lb DBs... holy fuck. I want to ask, how do you drop them without injuring your wrist or arm? idk if it's a dumb question but do you do it slowly, or just let em fall clattering to the mat?

yeah man just drop them to your sides.... and thats only 140 dumbells, havnt u ever seen that popular vid of him doing 200 lbs dumbells?
dont drop your db it causes damage to the mats and after doing it for a while you may get thrown out. Mostly this is a show off thing to make sure people see you imo just do like Zack says return them to your knees and set them down.
yeah ive never seen the 250lbs DB bench.. lol in one of the vids he said he brought the bells himself for metroflex. Throwing DBs also damages the DBs themeselves, they become loose and could be dangerous! i just bring my elbows in. and slowly put em down
